Christmas Eve
Arrive at the hotel in the afternoon and be welcomed by the lovely aroma of winter Pimms and mince pies being served in the lounge.
In the evening we invite you to join us for the General Manager’s welcome party where there will be a short talk about the forthcoming day’s entertainment and activities, following which we proceed to the candlelit Lake View restaurant where an exquisite Gala Dinner will be prepared by our Head Chef and his team. In between courses you will be entertained by our incredible table magician and have a visit from the Borrowdale Singers who will set a musical tone with a selection of seasonal carols. Black tie is requested for this evening.
And for those of you who would like a bit of fresh air after dinner, we have arranged a magical torchlight walk to the lakeside. Here we will have set up tables with hot punch and roasted marshmallows and with only the light from our lanterns and the fire, the lake and the surrounding mountains will soon make you feel as if you are in a Winter Wonderland.
Christmas Day
After a hearty breakfast (eagerly awaited if the children
have kept you awake since 5am!), Santa will be visiting the hotel. The leisure club is also a perfect place to spend a couple of energetic hours to work up an appetite or take a stroll to the cascading Lodore waterfall in the back garden of the hotel.
Our Head Chef will then prepare a fabulous Christmas Luncheon with all the traditional trimmings and seasonal touches. After lunch relax or collapse into a comfortable armchair in the lounge and listen to the Queen’s speech with a cup of tea and delicious homemade Christmas cake. Many children will be ready for the Splash Party in the leisure club where they can spend some time with their friends.
Later in true Lodore tradition it will be time for “Guess the Weight of the Cake” competition. Then it is out in the garden and up the fell for the exciting treasure hunt for the whole family. A light evening supper with local specialities will then be served, followed by our Quiz of the Year to test your general knowledge.
Boxing Day
Start with a Cumbrian breakfast and then spend the rest of the day as you please. Perhaps you would like to join us on our guided launch trip around the lake. A light buffet lunch will be available in the Garden Suite, or if you prefer you can order a picnic.
Following lunch we will head off for a walk around some of the local fells. We will be back in time for the children to enjoy a fun afternoon with a professional entertainer and activities.
Soon it will be time to change and get ready for the magnificent Gala Buffet prepared by the Lodore Falls Hotel kitchen team. This is tradition at its best and not a single thing has been changed since 1955 when the buffet was first introduced to guests at Christmas. We are sure you will be impressed.
After this gourmet experience it’s time for a bit of excitement Monte Carlo style, when our casino tables roll into life with professional croupiers trying to take your “money”. Fun money will be issued at the beginning of the evening and the gambler with the most “money” at the end will win a magnum of Champagne – superb entertainment for all!
27th December
After one more full Cumbrian breakfast it is time to say goodbye and head for home.
We hope you have enjoyed your time and look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
Why not extend your stay and relax a little longer with an extra day or two?
